The Newbeats was an American pop band that existed from 1964 to 1974.

At formation, the brothers Dean and Mark Mathis and Larry Henley were from 1963. Before Mathis plates were published as a duo, Henley met in 1963 at a show in Shreveport, Louisiana to the band. In the summer of 1964, Bread and Butter reached # 2 on the U.S. Billboard charts. Was published in the plate on Hickory Records of Wesley Rose in Nashville, where the band got its name.

The Newbeats become effective on in American Bandstand by Dick Clark as well as in other popular U.S. shows. 1965 reached Run, Baby, Run, her second big hit the U.S. Top 20 in the sequence they take mainly on songs from Acuff - Rose, the publisher who owns Hickory Records. Other top 10 hits do not reach, Run, Baby, Run reaches 1971, the British top 10.

Striking is the falsetto voice of Henley that characterizes the songs. The Newbeats thus interpreted, inter alia, (I Can not Get No) Satisfaction by the Rolling Stones, Help! by the Beatles and Oh, Pretty Woman by Roy Orbison in their own way
